Nautilus Diving Centre

Rating: 5 stars

"A fantastic trip. Great people, beautiful dive sites, excellent equipment, and a relaxed atmosphere made it a perfect dive experience. Cost: about 165 euro for 2 days of boat diving with guide, equipment and support staff. Excellent value for money. The boat was fast, comfortable, compact but fully equipped. Truly outstanding and well worth the trip. I can't wait to go back. All around, Nautilus are a great dive operation. Friendly and helpful, multilingual, highly professional, and safety-conscious, in my opinion they are the best in the Med. "

"We had our first diving experience in Palau, Sardinia through the Open Water and the Advanced Open Water course together. We enjoyed every moment, it was really a life changing experience. Scuba diving is like being in love, can't think about anything else! We were amazed how professional hands were taking care of us during these courses. Many thanks to the Nautilus Diving team: Stephanie, Vincenzo, Patrick, George! And special thanks to our instructor, Shannon. "

"We dived with Nautilus for three days in June. Owners and staff are very professional, helpful and friendly. They organized our accommodation, transfers and of course scuba diving. It was really good time, full of fun and adventure. Thanks for everything. "

"Sardinia seems to be overlooked by UK divers but in actual fact the fish life is more abundant and the diving more interesting than in other more popular parts of the Med. We had a fantastic time diving with Nautilus. Vinny and Steph, the owners, are a lovely couple with a real passion and knowledge of the local dive sites. We'd definitely go with them again. (It cost us) just over £200 each for accommodation and 6 dives for a week. They have access to a beautiful private villa where we had a wonderful stay. The boat is a spacious, speedy hardboat. "

"Vinnie and Shannnon are great instructors very relaxed but great attention to detail. Very good value for money. It was my first time and I was VERY nervous but they guided me through it well. "

" I would and will dive with Nautilus again. They were lots of fun, great briefings,and our safety came first. They made the days very fun and they did all the washing up and carrying of equipment! All we had to do was be on time to the boat. Vinny, Stephanie, Davide and Patrick were fantastic! Great value for money. In my opinion, This dive area is equal if not better than Phuket. The water is colder but better visibility and really interesting underwater landscapes. I highly recommend this dive center. What better confirmation than repeat divers!
We stayed at the Piccada and it was fine. A 3 star, clean walking distance to marina. "

"I recently dove with Nautilus Dive Center. I have to say not only was the diving great, but the staff and owners are also wonderful! Vinny and Stephanie are very personable, knowledgable of the area, safety oriented and professional (with an entertaining friendly touch). Which is shared in their excellent staff Martin and Eldridge. Travel time to and from the dive sites was short and beautiful. I acquired my advanced diver certification as well as a few extra dives over 3 days. Prices are reasonable and during the early season (May), the diving is great, complimented further by a lack of tourists. I would, and plan to, dive in the future with Nautilus as well as continue my diving experiences and education with such respectable naturalists and friends. "

"I was fortunate to have a wonderful easter weekend at in Sardinia diving pre-season. While the waters were, as expected, cold, the welcome from Stephanie and Vincenzo was lovely. They were enthusiastic about the dive sites and really helped me develop my techniques. It's a really easy place to get to from Olbia for a short trip. I will definitely be going back. "

"We have just done our PADI OWD qualification with Nautilus. They were very friendly and helpful, even before we arrived (with advice on accommodation etc). Their dives and courses seem to compare favourably pricewise to others. Sardinia is beautiful! We will probably be back, and would choose to dive with Nautilus again. "
Alison, UK, 2006

"Very friendly and professional diving team. Will certainly be returning to dive with them again. Great dive boat and good facilities. Great value for money. Boat very comfortable with plenty of room to get changed and plenty of room to leave your kit to dry between dives and overnight. "
